“They decided to hold an extreme protest here. We knew it was not safe, we were afraid, but we could not stop ourselves and wanted to show a bit ourselves. We were 10 Israelis against 5,000 lunatics. We had to,” she wrote on Telegram.
Israel’s beauty queen, Noa Cochva, was attacked by barbaric pro-Hamas protesters in New York, and needed medical treatment.
She said she simply wore her Star of David necklace, and they began getting violent and aggresive.
